Over the weekend, the NHL playoffs continued-and most series look to head into game 6 and 7 going into this week. On Friday night, the Carolina Hurricanes looked powerful in a win against the New York Islanders to move on to the conference finals. For the Islanders (and their fans) its a hard pill to swallow after sweeping the Pittsburgh Penguins in the first round. Later that night the Dallas Stars beat the St. Louis Blues on the road to take a 3-2 series lead. However, the Stars were unable to wrap up the series Sunday night losing at home 4-1 and will go to St.Louis for a winner take all game 7 on Tuesday night. On Saturday both the Boston Bruins and the San Jose Sharks won in their respective series to take a 3-2 lead over their opponents. Tonight both those teams can wrap up the series, too do so they must win on road. The Bruins will take on the Columbus Blue Jackets in Columbus at 7. Later the Sharks will start playing against the Colorado Avalance at 10 in Denver.
